Herbal medicine was introduced to the United States in the early part of this century and had a period of rapid popularity growth during the 1960s and 1970s. After a period of slower growth, the ideas of herbal medicine were repackaged slightly into a larger movement that combines elements of spirituality and “whole body medicine,” and is again seeing a period of rapid growth in this country. Ayurveda, a type of herbal medicine practiced in parts of India, uses various blends of herbs, vitamins, and minerals to treat a wide variety of ailments. Many companies –- both online and offline –- have capitalized on the renewed interest in “natural” medicine by selling “Ayurvedic Treatments.” One study, though, suggests that the products these companies are selling might be causing more harm than cure. Over a period of several months, researchers at the Boston University School of Medicine purchased a large number of Ayurvedic remedies from a variety of domestic and foreign sources, and analyzed the contents. Their results published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, revealed that many of the products contained toxic levels of mercury, lead, and arsenic. In high levels, these can lead to heart damage, brain damage, kidney failure, reproductive failure, cancer, and death. Overall, more than 20% of the products contained clearly toxic doses of heavy metals as did more than 40% of products specifically labeled as “rasa shastra” remedies.
